Munich - With the game against Benfica Lisbon in the Champions League *, Julian Nagelsmann * came full circle on Tuesday evening.

Since the group first game in Lisbon two weeks ago, the FC Bayern * coach was condemned to watch.

As of today, the 34-year-old football teacher is reunited with his team after recovering from Corona.

And there is a lot of work waiting for the busy coach.

FC Bayern against Benfica in the live ticker: Nagelsmann celebrates a comeback on the bench

Nagelsmann is returning to his original position against Benfica and will take a seat on the Bayern bench instead of the kitchen table in Grünwald. * This was announced by Bayern after a negative PCR test.

The trainer was already in charge of sweating on Säbener Strasse at noon before things get serious in the Allianz Arena * in the evening.

Nagelsmann missed four games during his quarantine.

With the 4-0 victories in Lisbon and against Hoffenheim in the league everything went well.

But Nagelsmann could not prevent the collective system crash at the 0: 5 cup debacle in Mönchengladbach even from a distance via radio contact.

The 5: 2 at Union Berlin was Bayern-like again, but one problem remains: the flood of goals conceded.

FC Bayern against Benfica in the live ticker: Nagelsmann has to stabilize the defense

“There are similar patterns in all games when we get chances against us.

In the end, it's often too easy.

It's about taking the last steps in the action, ”demanded Nagelsmann before returning to the bench against Benfica. *

It is “not necessarily about the rooms, but above all about the activity. We managed to do better in many phases of the season. We have to regain this willingness and not hope that the chain will defend it or that Manu (Neuer, d.Red.) Will keep it, ”said Nagelsmann. And this, he added emphatically, was “a task for the entire team”.

The offensive runs like a well-oiled machine.

38 goals in just ten Bundesliga games mean a record, plus twelve in three games in the premier class.

The central defenders Lucas Hernandez, Niklas Süle and Dayot Upamecano are too often let down by their front men.

"Afraid and afraid" therefore does not make him, said Nagelsmann.

The problem is "easy to fix".

But he also knows "that defensive work is not as much fun as playing with the ball forward".

FC Bayern against Benfica in the live ticker: Nagelsmann with clear words to his stars

However, the problem is not new.

Even under Hansi Flick *, rapid counter-attacks often revealed massive gaps that led to great opportunities.

"We have conceded too many goals in the past two years," complained CEO Oliver Kahn most recently.

Now, however, the team can "play to zero again, which is the basis for successful football".

Kahn said this before the Gladbach game.

It remains the most important task for Nagelsmann to stabilize the Munich defensive.

And in doing so, he keeps his stars responsible.

Defensive, he emphasized weeks ago, “always has a bit to do with attitude.

Scoring goals has something to do with greed.

We also need them on the defensive. "

In the Champions League, however, Bayern have a clean slate.

If it stays that way against Benfica, the premature move into the knockout phase beckons.
